Joy isn’t just a feeling—it’s a deep, abiding sense of peace and contentment that flows from your relationship with Christ. It cannot be taken or shaken by circumstances, because it’s rooted in the unchanging love and faithfulness of God. You have access to the joy that only comes from being filled by Him. This joy is not just for the good times but also to endure through the struggles. It’s the kind of joy that gives us strength, knowing that God is with us and that our future is secure in Him. The joy of the Lord is your strength, and it’s a joy that flows from the inside out, impacting not only our hearts but the lives of everyone around us. Joy is a gift from God, and it’s a testimony of His goodness. We may not have everything we want, but we have everything we need in Christ. That’s where our joy comes from—our Savior, our hope, and our promise of eternal life with Him. Joy is yours, regardless of the circumstances, because we know that God is in complete control.
